How CVE-2025-4977 Works
This vulnerability in Netgear DGND3700 firmware version 1.1.00.15_1.00.15NA allows remote attackers to access sensitive data via /BRS_top.html
. The flaw occurs due to improper access controls, exposing internal network details without authentication. Attackers send crafted HTTP requests to the vulnerable endpoint, triggering unintended data leakage. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) confirms network-based exploitation with low attack complexity. VulDB reports this as a MEDIUM-severity issue (CVSS-B 6.9) due to limited impact on confidentiality (VC:L) without system compromise.
